This beast is big, thick and rich. With an investment of 30g/L dry hop this triple hopped Double IPA is dank and juicy to the extreme.

Can. A light haze on this slightly pale (very pale for a modern dipa) beer, small cream colour head. Palate is light and fairly smooth, mildly dry with reasonable fine carbonation. Light soft mats, a very light creamy sweetness. Smooth piney hops, a little soft. Some Brut IPA grapey champagney vibe in the mid. Modest hop spice. A little citric peel on the mildly tangy and quite minerally finish. Kinda flirts with DIPA - Brut (if Ratebeer had any sense) but isn't as blatantly Brut as all that. Pleasant and easy drinking but I can't quite put my finger on what the brewer intended. Maybe the brewer can't either!

440ml can, 9.2 % abv, bought at Vinmonopolet Langnes. Diminishing white head, opaque golden body, spotty lacing. Restrained aroma of ripe fruity hops, rather sweet. Mid-sweet apricot juicy taste character joined by orange, and malty sweetness beneath. Mid-sweet fruity ending with noticeable alcohol. Satisfying. (Tromsø 03.10.2020).

Can picked up from Craft Metropolis by my sister-in-law. Sweet edged stone fruit aroma. Hazy yellow-gold. Foamy white head. Light bitter. A touch of sourness. Develops some sweetness. Not overly juicy stone fruit with resinous booze. It's the resin and booze that ultimately take over. Heavy bodied. Thick. Almost pulpy. Average carbonation. Long astringent finish. Boozy double IPA (well, NEIPA) that isn't OTT.
